BOOT CAMP IS HERE ; LATE NIGHT ON SEPTEMBER 30th
-
@BShark BTW, Frank Martin takes a huge hit from Evans being arrested, imo. He brought Evans with him from K-State to SC. Evans was instrumental in bringing in Thornwell and Dozier. Even if no funny business was going on, it sure puts a different light on SC’s Final Four run last year. I have always liked Frank, but if he thinks he has to have an Evans on his staff, maybe I am rating Frank way too high. Maybe Frank knew Evans so well, he encouraged him to go to Okie St. Maybe Frank wanted some distance. I dunno, but I won’t look at Frank Martin the same way. And that is unfortunate. And I noticed that Brad Underwood made an announcement, of course, of his “shock” that Evans was arrested, even though Underwood worked side by side with Evans for years.

Much like Ellis, and because of need, Mitch has been playing out of position. He has the build to be SF but has been playing PF. In HS this is not an issue but in Division I it is. He does have knack for rebounds so I will guess he will play a 3/4 combination.
-
I think Evans said he left for Oklahoma St for more money opportunities in the scheme.
Juwan Evans could have been one of those reasons…
-
-
@BShark ahhhh snap… Glad to see Preston and Doke getting along. Those two are going to be BEAST! Team chemistry seems good!
-
I’ve heard some downright nasty things about Billy. I guess he is just shredding everyone in practice.
-
@drgnslayr Do tell. I’m all ears.
-
@KUSTEVE Self ain’t playin when he called Billy the best player on the team. Let’s just see if he can consistently transfer it to games. Kid has a ton of talent. It might be that Self was the perfect choice to help him fully unleash during games.
Newman is an exciting talent too.
Frank and Josh had “IT” but this team has more talent. Esp if you are counting Doke vs Landen.
-
@BShark Our starting 5 should be as solid as a rock.
-
situational basketball is where I’m worried.
Doke foul trouble. Devonte foul trouble. Those 2 situations provide the most unknown right now.
Excited to see how this group blends in and digs in

Devonte being a SR knows what to do imo. Like, it’s worth him letting a guy go by him sometimes so as not to pick up a foul. He is worth more on the court than a cheap foul. Plus, KU at least has a semblance of guard depth.
I am much more concerned about Doke foul trouble.
-
@BeddieKU23 A heavy dose of Svi, Vick, and Garrett in the 4 out when foul trouble occurs.
-
Ok I admit it…I am totally geeked about this season. Is it normal for a 50 year old man to be this excited about a college BBall team???
-
-
I am going!!
-
For anyone wondering about Lil Yachty. Seems like a great move for the target audience (the recruits) based on twitter posts.
-
@BShark I’m interested to see how much they tone him down. I know it is supposed to be family friendly, but every other word coming out of Yachty’s mouth is not appropriate for the audience. Well I say that… But If they just let it be rated R, it’d be sick.
-
@Kcmatt7 Yeah, seems touchy when there will be young kids in the audience.

Who is Lil Yatchy? I guess it reveals my age and taste in music (???).

Don’t feel too bad. I had to google his name when KU made the announcement, lol.
-
@JayHawkFanToo he’s a very, very bad rapper that has been apart of one huge song.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I made it about 30 seconds thru this:
-
@KUSTEVE That’s further than I got…
-
They will clean it up.
-
@Fightsongwriter you gotta get geeked about something man! Why not Kansas basketball?
-
Man. Lil Yachty might just S-U-C-K more than Rick Pitino. Seriously couldn’t we find someone with talent?

The kids are excited about it. That’s what matters right? Glad I’ll be watching on TV so I can just tune that part out that’s for sure.
-
Kids like this? What is wrong with them?..maybe it’s just me.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 You sure it’s possible to clean that up?
-
I’m sure there is a budget for who they can get. I would like to see them land someone like BOB or Flo Rida. I think that’s the sweet spot for family friendly and an awesome concert. But might be slightly out of the price range. Even Lil Wayne has some cleanish songs he could come sing, but again he may be out of range.
-
I just wanna know who made Drake a U.K. Fan. That really is a game changer.
-
Snoop, DJ Khalid or Ludacris would be amazing too. There is definitely talent out there that isn’t As bad as Yachty.

How about P Diddy? He is as big as they come and he has literally kicked Drake’s butt before and might do it just to show him up one more time…
-
My daughter and I were planning on going. When she heard who was performing she changed her mind and wanted no part. Sad because she is a HS senior and this will be our last chance to go in a while (she will be going to college in Boston or CA next fall). Every song on Spotify of his is labled “explicit?” Guess I’ll be watching the royals instead.
-
@Fightsongwriter Well, I can’t really blame her after listening to this joker for about 30 seconds. That dude is off his rocker.
-
Like I said earlier, I’ll just skip that part since I’m watching online. Hopefully KU will do better next year.

Not just you. Something we agree on! Next thing you know, we will see world peace, the end of disease and hunger, and snowballs down in you-know-where!
-
